A SUPPORTING AID FOR BEEF CATTLE INVESTMENT OF FARM HOUSEHOLD IN CENTRAL JAVA
Abstract: The research was
conducted to analyze some factors influencing production, income, farmhousehold
consumption and investment of farm household beef cattle in Central Java. Five
districts werepurposively chosen for research location based on the number of beef
cattle population, namelyRembang, Blora, Grobogan, Boyolali and Wonogiri. Forty
respondents of each district were chosenrandomly using quota sampling. Data
were analyzed through Simultaneous Regression and estimated byTwo Stage Least
Square (TSLS). The results showed that independent variables were
simultaneouslysignificant to dependent variables (production, income, farm
household consumption and investment)with the Probability F test 0.0000 and
adjusted R2 were 91%; 89%; 96%; 62%, respectively. Thesimulation’s analysis of
agribusiness implementation consisted of 1) decreasing 15% of service
perconception, 2) increasing of beef cattle breed and number of beef cattle 15%
respectively, 3) raising ofprice of rice and number of household member 15%
respectively and 4) increasing of income and priceof beef cattle 10%
respectively influenced to farm household consumption and investment 0.446%
and5.14%, respectively, meanwhile production and income did not change. The
research can be concludedthat the independent variables simultaneously
significant influenced to production, income, farmhousehold consumption and
beef cattle investment. The simulation of changing usage of input factor
andprice significantly influenced to farm household consumption and beef cattle
investment.
